   Obvious Photoshop/Prank FAIL. And it’s borderline racist as well.

     I can tell you that this NOT photoshopped and is a genuine sign from a Chinese Restaurant in Oregon.

       It is totally shopped.
       Look how all the letters are perfectly aligned.
       Since you submitted it, maybe you could go and take multiple angles of the same sign. I doubt you could.

         It’s not photoshop, but still fake:

         Also not a fail of any sort at all. Real or fake, it’s a joke.

           The term “shopped” or “photoshopped” no longer refers to modifications of pictures/photos by the Adobe application only, but to any photo manipulation done.

           I knew about the site a long time ago. In fact, I used it to generate funny pictures that I sent out when I quit my job.

           I was challenging our poster to provide more pictures of this sign, which he/she obviously couldn’t do. How lame.

           Thank you for elucidating, but I still wouldn’t include interweb sign generators in that term, o pedantic one.

     Racism is the belief that one race is superior to another, not when one race laughs at another.
     The term is overused.

       Racism is also laughing *at* members of other races on the basis of negative stereotypes frequently ascribed to them (like, Chinese people have poor English, serve cats in their restaurants).

       Or maybe you’re just wishing for the day when this comes back on TV:

       racism is when one race discriminates another race in any shape or form.using stereotypes,which this shopped photo is doing,is a form of racism.

   If I were the moderator of this site, I would remove this post. This is obviously not a genuine FAIL. NayNay, this is a big NoNo, and it makes you look like an attention-seeking whore.

   I think this was supposed to be a joke. It’s not funny, but nevertheless it wouldn’t surprise me if the restaurant just put it up to get attention.

    I’m myself Chinese and I’m not offended at all by this. Although maybe it’s my British/Irish sense of humour, I actually had a pretty good laugh.

    But I actually thought the joke was more about people losing their cat’s and genuinely asking if people had seen them, as opposed to thinking the Chinese had eaten them
